Answer and Explanation:

What reasons does Odysseus give for taking revenge on the suitors?

When he finally arrives back home to the island of Ithaca, Odysseus, a hero in the Trojan War, finds several suitors surrounding his house. Odysseus sees enough reason to take revenge on them in the fact that they have been pushing Odysseus's wife Penelope to marry one of them. The suitors are disgracing his home and his wife, in Odysseus's perspective.

Did Odysseus care more about what the suitors had stolen from him or about how they offended his honor?

Odysseus cared more about his honor. As a matter of fact, that was a common male trait in Ancient Greece, according to stories such as this one. Men were concerned with how the world perceived them, how famous and respected they were. Glory and admiration were extremely important. The way the suitors have been acting is a disgrace to Odysseus and his family. They are disrespecting his wife, son, and himself, acting as if Odysseus had no importance.
